The Funatsu granitic complex in the Hida Mountains intruded into the metamorphic rocks of the Hida Metamorphic Belt and Hida Marginal Belt. This complex consists of three granitic rock types; Shimonomoto, Nakasawa and Funatsu types in the order of emplacement (Tanaka and Maruyama, 1985). As many samples were collected from these rock types, 6 specimens were analysed by ion-exchange resins and chelate-titration methods, and 30 specimens by X-ray fluoresence spectrometric (XRF) method on major elements. 110 specimens were analysed by XRF method on some minor elements.
Slightly different trends among these three types are shown in the variation diagram of major elements against SiO
2 (Fig. 1), and larger differences are found among minor elements of Ba, Rb and Sr in whole rock (Fig. 2). The Shimonomto and Funatsu types among three types are plotted in the different fields and have independent differentiation trends on (Fe
2O
3+FeO)-MgO-(Na
2O+K
2O) diagram (Fig. 4), on normative Or-Ab-An diagram (Fig. 5), on Rb-Ba-Sr diagram (Fig. 6) and on Sr-Rb/Sr diagram (Fig. 7). These chemical characters suggest that both types might be derived from different magma. Furthermore, solidifing depth of each magma is considered to have been different by normative SiO
2-Or-Ab system (Fig. 3).
The discordant result of the Rb-Sr whole-rock age in this complex between Tanaka et al. (1983) and Shibata and Nozawa (1984) may be attributed to the difference in rock-type classification, to the degree of alteration effect, and to some differences in sampling localities. It may be pointed out that the evaluation of the age data of the Shimonomto type is 208.6 Ma or older, and that for the Funatsu type is 180.9 Ma.
